A quotation I came by this week:

“Before enlightenment, chop wood and carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood and carry water.” —Wu Li

For me, enlightenment is building a healthy and happy partnership with my mind and my world.

This takes work. A lot of it. We will ‘chop ‘ and ‘carry’ a lot before it’s all over.

But maybe, it’s not supposed to be over. Maybe the work is a blessing all along.

And just maybe, harmony is a friend we’ll meet along the way.
